It's best for a younger woman to use pads at first, this is because they're simpler to use and tampons pose health risks which are greater for younger women. If a woman wants to use internal options it's far better to use menstrual cups or softcups rather than tampons as cups are safer and more convenient. At the end of the day it's up to the individual what products they want to use, if any.

You simply pull the tampon string gently but firmly - or insert clean fingers vaginally to grab the tampon itself in order to remove. Once removed you wrap-up the used tampon and throw in the waste bin, or if you'reusing reusable tampons clean out in the sink. You can then insert a fresh tampon or reinsert the reusable tampon - although it's best to alternate with pads after tampon use.
If you can still see the tampon once it's inserted then you've not inserted it far enougj. Remove the tampon and try again later, this time insert higher - it's best to use non-applicator tampon so you have better control over insertion.
The girl may have eaten the tampon out of curiosity or misunderstanding about what it was. Children sometimes explore their environment by putting objects in their mouths, not fully grasping the potential dangers. It's also possible that she mistook it for a candy or snack, highlighting the importance of keeping such items out of reach.
